Now that I've been doing this 'Wou-Wou...' malarkey for a year, I thought it'd be fun to do a special retrospective playlist filled with my favourite tracks thus far. So here it is.

It's pretty long, as I thought that 52 tracks (to mark each week in a year) was a good figure to work with. But even with its monstrous size, I still ran out of room for so many great tracks 'n' artists... cue honourable mentions: @chrisliving, @colab, @edouard-trolliet, @hannahmickunas, @jim-manser, @narcissenoyiugugu, @sarahshamash, @soundwanderer, @thomhowarth, @tushsnk, @theweightytree just off the top of my head, but there's so many I know that I've missed. Just check out my previous repost playlists and you'll see what I mean.

Life Model - Come Round

We Are Only What We Feel

Hungry Eyes

Another experiment in juxtapositioning.  My melding of some acid jazz with a seasoning of classical inflections and a dollop of heavy metal guitar solo.  Half bake for a few weeks et voilá, the GBH.

Gearheads:

My Les Paul Custom doing all the guitar stuff and the sequencing care of the installed Fishman Triple Play.  Strings from my trusty guitarviol.

GBH - Ghetto Baroque Hymn

Another tune off of our debut album from a few years back. If you like our stuff let us know :) We'd love to hear yours.

Chilled R&B: The Gold Edition

Loyal (feat. Lil Wayne & Tyga)

so I've been up all night making this - it just kind of happened - not much time spent mixing (2.5 litres of Thatchers)

Lyrics

As hypothetical as hypothetical is
could you stab me with an icicle?
like this…

there’s a blessing on every tip of every tongue
but they won’t like it if you’re
if you’re the only one

giving blood!

you’re not the only one
cutting it longways
baby

there’s a message
on every slice of precessed cheese
you won’t like it if no one else
no one else can see

but you think no one else can see
you think no one else can see
you think no one else can see
you think no one else can see

Mathematical as mathematical is
could you calculate you’re irrational?
like this…

there’s a note blowing
on every barrel of every gun
but you won’t hear it if you’re
you’re the only one

giving blood!

there’s a google group
cutting it longways
baby!

you’re the leaf dancing
on every summer breeze
you don’t like it if no one else
no one else can see

no one else can see
you think no one else can see
you think no one else can see
you think no one else can see

solo! (insert poorly disguised cry for help)

giving blood! giving blood! giving blood!
but you think no one else can see

As hypothetical as hypothetical is
could you stab me with an icicle?
like this…

there’s a blessing on every tip of every tongue
but they won’t like it if you’re
if you’re the only one

Atrocities of a fast food lifestyle?

It’s about hidden sentiment and the palatability of this understanding depending on social situation.

Hypothetical murder weapons - the icicle - leaves no evidence - it’s a crime that nobody talks about but everyone is apparently completely and uncomfortably aware of.

Anxiety bubbling up in the form of narcissism, domestic violence, self harm, musical self validation or even consumerism designed to be a profitable rather than as tasty or nutritional.

It seems to be the fulcrum - language that lets us say everything and nothing at all - I thought it might be the religion but now I think those are just the shapes of many people validating themselves.

so, a cry for help or an actual calculated decision to end it all - who else would jar a change and solo (like this) in a perfectly good song if they weren’t trying to resolve some validation issues? In terms of a technical exercise - this is the conscious effort to remember to cut ones wrists longways :( the only way to be sure?

…as someone recently reminded me - am I not merciful?

Was a good idea 
But it didn’t work try something else 
Can you think of anything better than messing with my mind 
Is this how you show love 
Is this how you show respect 
Watch me I’m gonna take all of my lovin’ back 

Yeah Let’s ride the tidal wave together 
We’re as good and as bad as eachother 
You’ve got your head on wrong 
And mine’s screwed too tight 

It’s a good idea but it’s never gonna work 
I just don’t like you that much 
I just want to make it hurt 
I could be nice but 
Fuck it I don’t wanna 
Why do you have to be such a loser baby 

Well I’ll try to ride the tidal wave together 
We’re as good and as bad as eachother 
You’ve got your head on wrong 
And mine’s screwed too tight 
Yeah Let’s pretend we’re in love with eachother 
That the skies are blue forever 
That you just didn’t twist it just to save yourself 

Yeah Let’s ride the tidal wave together 
We’re as good and as bad as eachother 
You’ve got your head on wrong 
And mine’s screwed too tight 
Yeah Let’s pretend we’re in love with eachother 
That the skies are blue forever 
That you just didn’t twist it just to save yourself 

Huh I’ve got to give you credit 
You keep it up 
You keep up all the lying no matter how many times I catch you out 
You keep it up 

Yeah Let’s ride the tidal wave together 
We’re as good and as bad as eachother 
You’ve got your head on wrong 
And mine’s screwed too tight 
Yeah Let’s pretend we’re in love with eachother 
That the skies are blue forever 
That you just didn’t twist it just to save yourself 

Yeah Yeah Let’s pretend we’re in love with eachother 
Yeah Yeah Let’s pretend we’re in love with eachother 
Yeah Yeah Let’s ride the tidal wave together 
Yeah Yeah Let’s ride the tidal wave together

Let's Pretend We're in Love with Eachother

You look at me 
with those 
half closed eyes
you got that face
tightened  
in a smile 
You blow those rings 
One at a time
You hope that you can 
hypnotize

I know you hoping that I'll forget Im leaving 
I know your hoping that all has been forgiven
I know you hoping that I'll forget Im leaving 
I know your hoping that all has been forgiven

Guess it worked one time
Better try another time
But all you do is tell lies
But all you do is tell lies

Guess it worked one time
Better try another time
But all you do is tell lies
But all you do is tell lies

All I can do Is take myself
Away from you
All I can do Is take myself
Away from you

I know you hoping that I'll forget Im leaving 
I know your hoping that all has been forgiven
I know you hoping that I'll forget Im leaving 
I know your hoping that all has been forgiven



All Has Been Forgiven

As Low As You Can Go
words and music by chris pendergraft
performed by chris pendergraft 

Swing it on down
As low as you can go
Swing it on down
Till you touch the floor
Swing it on down
As low as you can go
Swing it on down
Till you touch the floor

Cant find no heartbreak
when I hear that music playing
Its something you can’t fake
When the band is swaying 
It happens everyday
The people keep it playing
It’s like an Earthquake
when I hear that music playing

Some get hung and held up
self conscious
cant put thier hands up
some one may be watching 
Slide your body all around town
You were born to be free



As Low As You Can Go

PRE-ORDER: http://fatherdaughterrecords.bigcartel.com/product/pupppy-shit-in-the-apple-pie

What began as a solo project in 2013 for singer-songwriter Will Rutledge developed into Pupppy, the Purchase, NY quartet lead by Rutledge (vocals, guitar), joined by Sam Skinner on guitar, Victor Massari on drums, and Nick Hasko on bass. Pupppy puts all their cards on the table in the form of nine charming pop songs on the band’s debut, Shit In The Apple Pie, out April 21, 2015 on Father/Daughter Records. Rutledge worked on the album with guitarist Sam Skinner for nearly 14 months. After a lot of re-recording, scrapping, re-writing, crying, hair-pulling, and so on, Pupppy arrived at a finished work they are proud of, which contains songs that hark to personal and engaging memories of feeling dumb, puking at the MoMA, and all the unforgettably humiliating moments where something we don't like slaps us back into reality.

Retreat

Wet Kiss is a track from The Construction of Truth album. Thanks to headcharge777 for letting me deconstruct his solo guitar. https://soundcloud.com/headcharge777

This is the first track I've uploaded from this album, mainly because all the songs are really long and quite depressing. I hadn't even listened to it since it was recorded. As usual I try to challenge myself each album so I don't get stuck in a rut. For this one, all the tracks were written by starting with the title and then finding lyrics to make it fit. 
http://lolademo.bandcamp.com/track/wet-kiss

You want to be up and not be down 
You want to be high with your feet on the ground 
You don’t want to run but still be free 
I don’t want to know how much you hate me 

When every step you take is wrong 
Construct the truth and I’ll be gone 
Recover something that is lost 
You learned the truth at a cost 

Chorus: 
So you leave a wet kiss on my lips 
To say this is what you love 
Wet kiss 
On my lips 
A wet kiss 
To say this is what you love 
This wet kiss 

I had a belief but it was not true 
I knew who you were but it was not you 
You say that you feel that love is real now 
But I just feel empty anyhow 

You took my heart and cut it out 
Fill all my minutes up with doubt 
I thought you loved me more than this 
I could not see through the wet kiss 

Chorus 


Wet Kiss

I know
words and music  and album art by Chris Pendergraft. 

I know 
I know how it feels
when the earthquakes are coming
I know how it feels
When the rainbows are running
Tip toe across the floor
to your darkest fears
have no time to waste
on psychedelic tears

the walls are pending with the beat of your heart
and the ceilings crashing in
But all these fears are deep in your mind
and it is you who lets it in

Come on out
It's time to glow
Shine your light so the world can know
you've not giving up on your self
Even if you don't think
this world cares about your dreams
Even if you have
no one else

faded and jaded so frustrated 
faded and jaded so frustrated 

the walls are pending with the beat of your heart
and the ceilings crashing in
But all these fears are deep in your mind
and it is you who lets it in

Come on out
It's time to glow
Shine your light so the world can know
you've not giving up on your self
Even if you don't think
this world cares about your dreams
Even if you have
no one else

I know 
I know how it feels
when the earthquakes are coming
I know how it feels
When the rainbows are running
Tip toe across the floor
to your darkest fears
have no time to waste
on psychedelic tears

I am lucky to have music in my life, as well as art. I hear music in my head and give it voice. Its just that simple. So as you go through my cloud, you will hear music from many genres, because I feel many things. We are all the same. We are all working this all out in different ways, from different places. That connection to each other can be felt, like the wind, but it is unseen, so if a song reaches out to you, reach out to me. I am just a person trying to work it all out.
All my music is free, unless you find it on iTunes, but some albums are only there so if you dont have any money let me know what record you want and ill send it to you. 
So I paint, and I do the art for all the bands I write for, and a whole lot of other bands, so I am blessed because art is divine. Anyway, if you want to book one of my bands, or whatever, want to sing one of my songs (they are all open to that) just reach out to me on Facebook or instagram. Send me a mail if you need me to support your track here on soundcloud, or if you need art for your music. Bless you.
